So they targeting companies like Siemens now? They do not make public transportation systems, they do not make energy systems, they do not build houses. http:/

  I don't think the word "Targeting" is correct. Google has unique innovation skills, and they are willing to use them to collaborate with others who are willing to innovate. Only unless said companies(say ISP's) aren't willing to innovate, they'll be a threat. At least that seems the general theme at Google.

    Not sure you really addressed why 'Targeting' isn't correct. Just because they have unique skills doesn't mean they can't target someone's business.

That first link you provided: http://i.imgur.com/URR2MJK.png http://i.imgur.com/URR2MJK.png The text I circled in red looks very similar to the 3 things you mentioned and looks like exactly like the kinds of issues sidewalkinc.com would be tackling.

    > Am I missing something? "They" in that sentence might be referring to Google?

      Oh, you are probably right. But Google is messing with self-driving cars, so they(Google) at least have the transportation angle covered. :p

  I think there's more than enough room in the market of making better cities for every company to thrive.
